In other words, the BLS figures appear to be accurate -- it's the San Antonio paper that misinterpreted the numbers. That's not the gubmint's fault.
[/ QUOTE ]so what should ya'll do? i say write an "opinion article" and send it in to the san antonio paper pointing out their facts are "sensationalized" and not accurately verified facts and if they're going to be revered as accurate media staples, they need to backcheck their work!!
if you want to make changes, ya gotta start somewhere and by bombarding the media who *screwed up* with opinion articles that all say basically the same thing says more than you think it says!!
at the least, one would be published (if not more than one) and at least one person will read it and have his/her mind changed for the better!
